Victorian gardens
Nineteenth-century formal grounds
Victorian gardens are ornamental gardens designed in the style popular during Queen Victoria's reign (1837–1901), characterized by elaborate flower beds, geometric patterns, exotic plants, and decorative features like fountains, gazebos, and wrought-iron furniture.
The style emphasized formal design, bright colors, and conspicuous display: The estate's Victorian garden featured intricate carpet bedding and a glass conservatory.
